Ignoring width...problem

[GrimmSpector]

Getting console messages and display issues, because width on some stringcontrol objects is being ignored...anyone know why? It's for "walk_label" and "sprint_label", need to widen them to hold the text....full xml follows, I've removed most of the lua scripting as it's not pertinent.

What are the exact messages you are getting with this XML? (Just use the Copy To Clipboard menu item in the console window, or copy from the console.log file.)

From a quick glance, the walk_label and spint_label have left/right/top anchors from using "below" position, but not height. So, these shouldn't be throwing errors.

I get several dozen of this identical error:

Ruleset Warning: window: Anchored static width ignored for control (walk_label) in windowclass (charsheet_main)

If I set width on multiple controls, any of the controls called "walk", "sprint", "run", etc. all the stringcontrol and simplenumbers in that little block, I get this error for all of them.

Around this time I started noticing that problem with not being able to click on controls I previously could, but I can't find any control overlapping or inteferring, even that overly complicated windowlist setup I have now I can't click on any controls but the first two rows; I doubt they're related however.

[Moon Wizard]

Yes, you will get the error because you are using position="below" which sets the left, top and right anchors. Since the left and right anchors are set, then any width value will be ignored and thus the warning message. I'm guessing that you might want to use position="belowleft" if you want to be able to set a width directly.

Ah! So that just sets below and left anchors, ok, thank you!
